How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh beef
- You should choose beef pieces that are bright red with streaks of blood and a light pink layer of fat.
- Good beef will feel firm when you press it lightly with your finger, not sticky and has no unusual smell.
- Avoid buying beef pieces that have turned pale green or unusually dark red, with dark yellow fat, white spots on the meat, and a mushy or sticky feel when touched.
How to choose clean, safe water spinach
- You should buy water spinach that looks fresh, with light green leaves and few pests. When you break the stem in half, it should release clear, white sap. Choose water spinach with small stems instead of large ones, as the latter may have been treated with growth hormones or over-fertilized with nitrogen.
- It is advisable to buy water spinach from places that sell fresh food, with a reputable brand, ensuring hygiene. Additionally, you can look for it on reputable e-commerce sites like bachhoaxanh.com
